Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery
cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room temperature at
10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a hot battery
cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge once in every six months
if you do not use it for a long period of time.

(Fig. 1)
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.

• Hold the tool and the battery cartridge firmly when
installing or removing battery cartridge. Failure to hold
the tool and the battery cartridge firmly may cause
them to slip off your hands and result in damage to the
tool and battery cartridge and a personal injury.
To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool while
sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it
into place. Insert it all the way until it locks in place with a
little click. If you can see the red indicator on the upper
side of the button, it is not locked completely.
CAUTION:
• Always install the battery cartridge fully until the red
indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone
around you.
• Do not install the battery cartridge forcibly. If the
cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted
correctly.

directly.
Push the switch to light up the LED light. To turn off, push
the switch again.
Battery protection system
The protection system is equipped, which automatically

The head angle can be adjusted in 12 stages. Adjust as
desired.
Strap hook (Fig. 4, 5)
